Using the Command Line Interface (CLI)
For each PDU in a chain, you can list the PDUs, switch a PDU, add a new link PDU, and release a link PDU. You can
then use all regular PDU-related commands as usual to access and control individual units, as with any standalone
PDU.
About PDU Linking CLI Commands:
•
The CLI is disabled on link units. Access to the link unit via the CLI is available only through the master CLI.
•
If any link units are configured, the CLI prompt includes the currently selected PDU and Link ID, such as My
Pdu (1) or My Pdu (2).
•
Some commands are not available for link units:
o
Authentication settings
o
EnergyWise settings
o
Security settings (login, role-based access control, user blocking, and strong passwords.)
o
Server monitor
o
User management
